All projects must be created entirely within the 36-hour span beginning Friday 9pm and ending Sunday 9am. Projects are free (and encouraged) to make use of any existing, publicly-available code or hardware not built for the purpose of the hackathon. For example, a project may make use of open-source community libraries but cannot make use of code written by team members specifically for the hackathon. If ever in doubt, err on the side of refraining from reusing code.

Organizers reserve the right to determine the final eligibility of a project or team.
